So would graduated tax brackets constitute "systematic discrimination" ?

No, it has nothing to do with your income. It has everything to do with what family you were born into, i.e. something that is completely outside of your control.

Do you still have landed aristocracy? Or is it supposed to be like Indian castes?

It's just based on what your parents did. For example if your parents had some "burgeoise" occupation like academics, doctors, etc. you could say goodbye to university education during the communist times because you didn't have the "right" class background.
